J&C Meakin Olive Green Floral Pattern Teacup/Coffee Mug

This item is a ceramic teacup or coffee mug, likely made from earthenware or porcelain given its smooth, white glazed finish. The cup features a slightly flared rim and a sturdy, C-shaped handle, contoured with a subtle ridge along its outer edge, providing a comfortable grip. A dominant decorative band of olive green floral and foliate motifs encircling the top portion of the cup, just below the rim. The pattern consists of stylized leaves, scrolls, and flourishes, set against a lighter green or cream background within the band itself. This pattern suggests a vintage aesthetic, possibly from the early to mid-20th century. Below this decorative band, the body of the cup appears to have a textured, possibly embossed, surface with a geometric or patterned relief, though the details are not entirely clear from the image. The overall color scheme is white with a distinct olive green, suggesting a classic and perhaps nature-inspired design. The cup appears to be in good condition, showing no obvious chips, cracks, or significant wear on the visible surfaces, and the glaze appears intact. The craftsmanship suggests mass-produced quality common for dinnerware of its era. This particular design and the manufacturer information 'J&C Meakin' and 'Made in England' indicate it's a product of the well-known English pottery company, J&C Meakin, active for many years, which aids in dating it. The specific pattern name would be needed for a more precise dating but it aligns with their typical production styles.
